LONDON. Sept. 5. (Special Cable.)
rrmier Lloyd George is trying to stem
the current of French indignation over
Britain's alleged underhand grabbing
policy in P ria, which is growing dally
in volume and fierceness.
Tertinax. of the Echo de Taris. is
leadinsr the on.et with characteristic
pimsency. and his satire on this topi
is not so keenly admired here as it was
when applied to the it points during
the peace conference. The Daily News
editorially puts the case plainly, ad
mitting what l. happening as creating
a possibility of serious friction between
Britain and France, and adds -that
France is laboring under a sense of
grievances which cannot be dismissed
as entirely unjust.

-For the 1316 secret agreement, there
Is nothing to be said. Under article 20
of the covenant of the league, which
both France and Britain signed, it must

Meoatamiaa Oil Desired.
Jn view of the traditional interest
of France in Syria, it is not astonish
ing that our reluctance to recognize her
claim of the Syrian mandate provoked
some warmth. When the Mesopotamia
campaign started, it was severely de
nounced by military strategists here as
a ci imlnal squandering of men and ma
terial: but the British foreign office
knew better, and in addition to the
agricultural wealth of the richest till
age land in the world, British blood was
ched in Mesopotamia to obtain the sec
ond most valuable oil field yet discov
ered anywhere.
"Whe i British trade experts assured
the public, the other day. that America
would be coming to Britain for oil be
fore many years, he was thinking of
this acquisition, as well as supplies un
der British control, r ranee cannot con
ceal her envy of Britain's eastern gains
compared with her own. which makes
her press the Syrian claim with deter
